Hi,

QEMU system emulators can be made to compile and work without Pixman.

Only a few devices and options actually require it (VNC, Gtk, Spice for ex) and
will have to be compiled out.

However, most of QEMU graphics-related code is based on pixman_image_t and
format. If we want to provide mostly compatible QEMU machines with or without
Pixman, all we need to do is to have a small compatibility header with just the
bare minimum for those types (see "ui: add pixman-compat.h"). There are a
limited number of operations related to geometry that are slightly better
implemented in QEMU (without Pixman, see "virtio-gpu: replace PIXMAN for
region/rect test").

Without this simple compatibility header approach, QEMU at runtime becomes a
very different emulator (without graphics device/board, display etc) and full of
"if PIXMAN" conditions in the code. This is a much worse outcome imho, compared
to this small header maintainance and compatibility story.

Fixes:
https://gitlab.com/qemu-project/qemu/-/issues/1172

v8:
- rebased
- replace "hw/display: make ATI_VGA depend on PIXMAN" with
  "hw/display/ati: allow compiling without PIXMAN"
- add some r-b

v7:
- make FULOONG depend on VT82C686
- various r-b/a-b

v6:
- add "build-sys: drop needless warning pragmas for old pixman"
- rename pixman-compat.h -> pixman-minimal.h
- add "vl: drop needless -spice checks"
- add "qemu-options: define -vnc only #ifdef CONFIG_VNC"
- add "vl: simplify display_remote logic"
- in "vl: move display early init before default devices", rename the introduced
  function qemu_setup_display()
- adapt "hw/sm501: allow compiling without PIXMAN" following Zoltan review,
  using warn_report(), droping Error argument
- various r-b/a-b

v5:
- fixed "vl: move display early init before default devices" patch

v4:
- added "vl: move display early init before default devices" patch
- code style fixes
- a-b from Zoltan

v3:
- improve transient meson condition in first patch (Paolo)
- use muxed console as fallback by default (Paolo)
- make pixman-compat.h closer to original API
- keep "x-pixman" property for sm501 (Zoltan)
